SAVING Rare Koi From Freezing Ice Water

DANGEROUS ICE STORM, IS GOING TO FREEZE MY KOI FISH! We must build a survival shelter for them to camp in the below 0 degree temperatures. Let's get to work!

Many animals are found frozen in ice. They hibernate like crocodiles frozen in ice, and koi fish frozen in ice.

as a Canadian, seeing someone get stressed out by -10 degree weather confused me so bad for a moment

[superseshiro]

There was a mistake in the explanation though. It is NOT about geothermal heat (at least not primarily) - it is about the fact that water is at its desenst at 4 degrees Celsius. So 4 degrees warm water will sink to the bottom and therefore the most stable temperature will be at the bottom of the pond. If the pond freezes over, this might also be the warmest temperature.

Yes please, build a bigger and deeper pond, love the pond guy and professor they do fantastic work! Really great to have such good friends to work that hard for a pizza, lol. Nice tent, love the windows on the side. Looks like it's working, can't wait to get an update. Thanks George and friends, great job!

Pro tip:
If you leave gaps on the bottom of the tent that are big enough for a kid do walk through, the cold air MIGHT also find that gap and get in :D

Please deeper pond! When you build that bigger pond, maybe you can have a greenhouse type structure as part of the design so you won't have those same issues next winter? I'd love to see that work. Have a little oasis. Maybe your mom can take advantage and grow some plants that are from a warmer USDA zone. Make a whole thing of it.

Fun fact about water: flowing water is almost impossible to freeze

Build the bigger pond! I love fish and seeing how you protected them just warms my heart! I hope you and your fish are doing well!

3:48 as the fish said he wanna see Santa lol😂

[Brayden-no]

First time watching the video, but so far so good, please build a bigger one

What you created on the plants is called hoarfrost. It is really neat to see you created a humid environment that allowing that to happen in the cold. Normally you do not see it unless it is several degrees below freezing, like in AK. But you have so much moisture under the tent, it did it! So fun!

Never seen anyone who cares so much about his Koi’s. ❤

Lol on 0:35 in the vid the cat skidding around on the pond was so cute ☺️ 😅

[PochaccoPlayz]

0:25 My anxiety rose when he stepped on the edge of the pond....

Next year surrounding the pond with bales of straw on the outside of the tent to seal the under draft will make a big difference.

[BraydonBlanchette]

My first time seeing this channel and I already know I want to see a bigger pond!

7:59 why did I think it was a toaster💀

[jamessmithson-brrm]

Why don’t you just dig and extra foot or two down into the pond 😂 Seems like that would be a lot less faff

[mattiemathis]

Neat! I live in the desert so people are always trying to keep their koi from cooking in the summer.
Will continue to watch, I’m curious if your tent holds up to the wind all winter. If it does, I’ll be getting one. 😁

[TorstenBronger]

Ed the professor should help do your pond deeper, not nessesarily bigger though 😅. Great video!

[treboryulo]

That’s really cool how he manage to keep his koi alive
